When I was using GM in soap, I would freeze it in ice cube trays (regular size and minis). I used it at 100% of my liquid and would make my lye solution with the frozen GM. My recipes were primarily EVOO with other oils and butters at lesser percents so I soaped at lower teps. I never had issues...

Congratulations! 🎉💘💍💒🎉

I bought 2 packages from BB and barely used any out of one package. If you want to try some I will gladly send you some, maybe half a package, to experiment with ~ no charge, and I will even pay the shipping. I bought it a couple of years ago and haven't touched it since. I get plenty of slip...

I can vouch for that ~ when I made goat's milk soap, I would freeze the milk and pour my lye over the frozen milk cubes. Yes, it takes a bit longer for the lye to melt the frozen milk and also dissolve, but it greatly reduces fumes which is a huge plus for me because my kitchen is small and not...

The ultimate hard bar recipe for sure! 🤣🤣🤣

And where in South Jersey would that be? I grew up in the Woodbury/West Deptford area 😁

Fragrances and dyes/colorants are just the tip of the iceberg of things my skin reacts to ~ so it's nice to not have that worry anymore 😄

I got excited when I first figured it out too! I did a bunch of searches to find those posts and tagged them! 😄

Well, for me, I made one batch after another trying to figure out the "perfect" recipe so I actually do have a huge basket full of bars of soap that I have to use up before I make more (or my husband might have a soap induced stroke). And since nobody in my circle of friends and family wants to...

That sounds so exciting! Can't wait to see the finished pictures! 😄

Wow! That's a nice

I was totally in it for skin issues ~ and I learned a LOT about how to actually formulate a gentle cleansing bar ~ because it wasn't exactly what I thought it was supposed to be! 😄 Now I'm busy using up all my not quite perfect soaps and will soon be making more 🥰

Always a silver (bubbly) lining! 😄

And once you peek inside, you just can't look away! 🤓👀🤓

Ooooooh! I hadn't realized the difference ~ I've been a chicken about trying it because it does seem like a lot of work to get the color from indigo ~ and now I find out that difference 🙄 I definitely would have bought the wrong thing, or would have tried to process it the wrong way 🤦🏼‍♀️ I...

Side note: try searching YouTube for using indigo in soap. I seem to recall a video where a lady showed different ways to process indigo to get different hues but I don't recall who it was. If I find it again I'll post a link ETA Link:

This was a fun one to watch! Congratulations to all of you for making beautiful soaps! 🥰 You guys truly inspire!

I can't speak for the moringa powder but I did try adding some of my organic greens powder to a soap for a deeper green color. It colored ok, it seemed a bit gritty, but not in a bad way, it just didn't dissolve completely, but I couldn't feel it at all in the soap. The greens mix has spirulina...

Okie dokie ~ I was excited to find that shape though!

Correct, it was just an online website ~ and I was browsing while work was moving slow. I managed a few screenshots but didn't get the link ~ I apologize. I did get excited when I saw 2 and 4 oz sizes and the one with 2 parts ~ would that one release the soap any better? @dibbles
